Generals Zero Hour INI — VS Code extension

Reference editor client for the genparser language server (see the project root README for the full architecture). Provides diagnostics, completions, hover, go-to-definition, and schema-aware semantic highlighting for C&C Generals: Zero Hour .ini files.

The server itself is IDE-agnostic; this extension is just a thin client that launches it and speaks LSP.

Build

cd editors/vscode
npm install
npm run compile

Provide the server binary

Build the server from the workspace root and make it discoverable in one of these ways (checked in order):

1. Set genparser.server.path to the absolute path of genparser-lsp.
2. Copy the binary to editors/vscode/server/genparser-lsp[.exe] (bundled into the .vsix).
3. Put genparser-lsp on your PATH.

cargo build --release -p genparser-server
# option 2:
mkdir -p editors/vscode/server
cp target/release/genparser-lsp* editors/vscode/server/

Run / debug

Open this folder in VS Code and press F5 to launch an Extension Development Host, then open any .ini file recognized as Generals INI.

Package

npm run package   # produces genparser-vscode-<version>.vsix (needs @vscode/vsce)

Note on .ini association

This extension claims the .ini extension under the generals-ini language id. If you also edit unrelated .ini files, scope it per workspace with files.associations, e.g. only treat files under your mod folder as generals-ini.
